ADELAIDE MooRE's JULIET.

The English Tragedienne Appeared at
the Grand Opera House Last Night.
Notwithstanding the impediments to
travel that was placed in the way of
Miss Adelaide Moore, she arrived In the
city in good time and appeared at the
Grand opera house as Juliet" in Shakes
peare's play Of Romeo and Juliet. This
character Is one of the most difficult one
TO assume, because it covers wide
range Of feminine passions that
are commonly centred In love and
beauty grace and passion are the char
acteristics Of an ideal Juliet; such indeed
as that with which Adelaide Nelson
charmed her audience. Miss Moore has
a good conception of the character, all
the necessary beauty, the yoluptousness
of form, the grace, and granduer Of the
dress, but her voice has not the sweet
ness, tenderness nor compass for true
rendition ofa loving Juliet. Her voice
Is the weak part OF her. and is now in q
worse condition from her recent attack
OF pneumonia. Her company is not Of
high order, and none but Fred Ross
"Mercutio" and Robert DartOn's "Ty-
bait" deserve mention. The Romeo Of
Mr.. Charles Bennett was weak and
lacked the fire and calibre OF the
ideality.
This afternoon Miss Moore PLAYS
"Pauline" 10 the Lady Of Lyons, and to-
night she will present "Galatea" in
PygmaliOn and Galatea. These Charac-
tiers are much better suited to the ac-
tress and will doubtless be more salts
factory to the public.
